Problem viewing web content

Hi all,

My problem: wml files are displayed well if they are stored locally. However, this is not true for the very
same decks when uploaded on my server.

Since other wml pages (e.g. http://de.wap.wikipedia.org/) seem to work fine, there seems to be something
wrong with my http server, or its configuration.

I have already discovered that the server does not recognize wml files, and thus sends them with content
type 'text/plain'. This cannot work, of course, and explains why FF first had displayed the file in its
source code form.

I then used PHP to send the correct MIME type 'application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml'. Unfortunately this
hasn't lead to success: FF now displays the "open with/save" dialog box instead of using wmlbrowser. If I
then save the file with a .wml extension, this local file can again be viewed without problems.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance, and kind regards

Johannes Knaupp

PS:
1. Test file: http://jknaupp.de/test.php

2. My configuration:
- MS-Windows XP SP 2
- FF 3.0.1
- wmlbrowser 0.7.18:
	- browsing of local wml files: enabled

The MIME type for WML is text/vnd.wap.wml

As far as I can tell, application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml is some kind of 
mobile XHTML document format, which wmlbrowser does not support.

Dear Sir/Madam,
We receive SMS messages from noaccess.wml and we want to be able to stop them from being sent to us.
How can we do that?
Hope you can help us!

The wmlbrowser extension isn't capable of sending SMS messages, so I 
don't think I can do anything to help.
